Definitions

  • the present invention relates to excitation systems for synchronous dynamoelectric machines, and more particularly to a method and means for fast de-excitation of the brushless exciter of a synchronous generator.
  • Brushless excitation systems are now widely used for supplying direct current field excitation to synchronous dynamoelectric machines such as large alternating current generators.
  • Such brushless excitation systems include an alternating current exciter having a stationary field structure and a rotating armature member.
  • a rotating rectifier assembly is carried on a common shaft with the exciter armature and is connected thereto to provide a direct current output.
  • the output of the rectifier is connected to the field winding of the main generator which also rotates with the exciter armature and rectifier. In this way, an excitation system is provided which requires no sliding contacts.
  • the main exciter for a synchronous generator comprises an alternating current generator having its armature mounted on the same shaft as the field winding of the synchronous machine and also having a stator field winding which must be energized by direct current to create a magnetic field so that a voltage will be induced in the rotating armature of the exciter.
  • the direct current excitation for the main exciter is provided by a pilot exciter having a permanent magnet rotor turned by a prime mover within an annular armature winding to produce excitation power for the main exciter.
  • Means such as a rectifier circuit is ordinarily provided to convert the alternating current output of the pilot exciter to direct current for the main exciter field excitation.
  • 3,341,328 and 3,671,850 are illustrative as to the use of controlled rectifiers such as thyristors in place of the conventional diodes in the rotating rectifier assembly of a brushless exciter.
  • Thyristors have proven to be particularly suitable for rotating equipment applications, since they are relatively insensitive to vibration, extreme temperature environments, and accelerative forces. Additionally, they afford relatively fine control of the excitation so that an extremely large range of exciter current is available for both the forcing mode of operation and counter-excitation, more commonly known as fast de-excitation.
  • the exciter size must be chosen according to the continuous rating of the unit at the nominal ceiling voltage so that the conductor size is correspondingly large to accommodate operation at the nominal ceiling voltage level. As would be expected, the cooling requirements for such an arrangement are also increased to accommodate the thermal requirements of the increased mechanical and electrical losses.
  • Thyristors With gate control, permit more control over the excitation as compared to the use of conventional diodes for rectification.
  • the thyristors are switched at a relatively high ceiling voltage that requires a high power rating, and additional components are required for fast de-excitation. For the foregoing reasons, it was deemed desirable to improve the design and operation of the controlled rectifier brushless exciter.
  • the conventional diodes of a brushless exciter are replaced with controlled rectifiers such as thyristors.
  • the armature of the exciter is operated at a voltage level which corresponds with rated voltage output and which is substantially below the nominal ceiling voltage of the exciter.
  • the gates of the thyristors are fired only at a low voltage point of the negative half cycle of the armature voltage waveform for fast de-excitation and are maintained in a full on condition during the positive half cycle of the waveform. This permits the use of thyristors having a lower power rating and makes unnecessary additional components for fast de-excitation.
  • the main exciter for a synchronous dynamoelectric machine includes a rectifier assembly having an input circuit connected to receive alternating current power from the exciter armature and an output circuit connected to conduct direct current excitation through the synchronous machine rotor field winding.
  • the rectifier assembly comprises a plurality of controlled rectifier elements which are electrically connected in bridge relation between each phase of the polyphase armature winding and the output circuit to conduct current, when gated on, from associated phases of the polyphase armature winding to the direct current field winding of the synchronous dynamoelectric machine.
  • Gating of the controlled rectifiers is provided by control means which is responsive to a predetermined function of the loading condition of the synchronous dynamoelectric machine to provide normal excitation for rated load conditions, forcing excitation for transient loads which exceed rated load, and fast de-excitation when a major fault has occurred.
  • the controlled rectifiers are maintained in a fully-conducting condition with the rectifier elements being rendered conductive only during the positive half cycle of the armature voltage waveform during starting, operation at rated load, and operation at a load level exceeding rated load in the forcing mode of operation.
  • the controlled rectifiers are maintained in a conducting condition with the rectifier elements being rendered conductive only during the negative half cycle of the armature voltage waveform to provide for fast de-excitation of the exciter upon the occurrence of a predetermined overload condition.
  • the polarity of the voltage applied to the field winding is reversed thus causing de-excitation of the exciter in a substantially shorter time period as compared to the conventional de-excitation means of simply shorting the field winding.
  • thyristors of a substantially lower power level may be used and the size of the exciter structure may be reduced correspondingly since current requirements and copper sizes are also reduced. Also, since the thyristors are operated in a fully-conducting condition either during the positive half cycle or during the negative half cycle with forcing excitation being provided by the magnetic field of the pilot exciter, there is no derating of the thyristors required for excitation control as in the conventional thyristor control systems which operate at or near the nominal voltage ceiling. This arrangement permits a further reduction in the power rating of the thyristors and makes unnecessary additional components for fast de-excitation and forcing excitation.

  • a synchronous dynamoelectric machine 10 which may be a turbine generator and a brushless excitation system 12 having an alternating current exciter 14 and a rotating recitifer assembly 16 mounted on a common shaft 18 for concurrent rotation by a prime mover 20.
  • the alternating current exciter 14 may be of any suitable type having a stationary stator field member 22 and a rotating armature member 24, the armature member 24 comprising a three phase winding 25 disposed in a core carried on the shaft 18 so as to be rotatable with a main rotor field winding 26 of the synchronous dynamoelectric machine 10.
  • the armature winding 25 is connected to the rotating rectifier assembly 16 which has a plurality of controlled rectifier elements 28 and fuses 30 connected in a conventional bridge arrangement to provide direct current output for excitation of the field winding 26.
  • the rectifier assembly is shown in a rotating embodiment, the control rectifier elements 28 and fuses may or may not be rotating, and in the case where they are not rotating, the output of the armature winding 25 is fed to the controlled rectifiers 28 by means of slip rings or other such sliding contacts, and the output of the controlled rectifier assembly is likewise supplied to the field winding 26 also by means of such sliding contacts.
  • the direct current excitation flowing through the rotor field winding 26 establishes a magnetic field which induces current flow within a polyphase stator armature winding 32 of a stator 33 of the synchronous generator 10 when the rotating components of the brushless excitation system are caused to rotate by the prime mover 20.
  • the main exciter 14 receives its field excitation from a pilot exciter 34 which includes a permanent magnet field member 36 mechanically connected to the shaft 18 for rotation by the prime move 20.
  • a pilot exciter 34 which includes a permanent magnet field member 36 mechanically connected to the shaft 18 for rotation by the prime move 20.
  • the output of the pilot exciter armature winding 38 is connected to a regulator 40 which converts its alternating output to direct current and controls the DC level of the excitation supplied to the AC exciter field 22.
  • the regulator 40 may be of any conventional type and it is responsible to a voltage signal 42 from the synchronous generator stator armature winding 32 and a current signal 44 which is also derived from the stator armature winding 32.
  • the voltage signal 42 may be derived by means of a potential transformer 48 and the current signal may be derived by means of a current transformer 46, both being connected to a suitable branch of the stator armature winding 32.
  • a control signal 50 is developed within the regulator 40 which is generally proportional to a predetermined function of the power output of the synchronous generator.
  • the signal 50 developed by the regulator 40 may be of any suitable function of the voltage and current developed in the stator winding 32; however, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the signal 50 comprises preferably two components, a first component which corresponds with operation of the turbine generator 10 during starting at rated load conditions, or under transient loading conditions during a forcing excitation mode of operation.
  • the first component of successive pairs of control signal 50 causes a gate control unit 55 to fire the gates of the controlled rectifiers 28 and the rotating rectifier assembly 16 in the fully conducting condition, with the control rectifiers 28 being rendered conductive only during the positive half cycle portions of the voltage waveform of each respective input phase of the AC exciter armature winding 25.
  • the controlled rectifier element 28 With full gate during the positive half cycles, the controlled rectifier element 28 are operating merely as conventional uncontrolled diodes. Operation of the exciter 14 and the rotating rectifier 16 under these conditions is illustrated in FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 of the drawing. In FIG. 3 of the drawing the phase-to-phase armature voltage input to the rotating rectifier assembly 16 is illustrated. In FIG.
  • the angle theta ( ⁇ ) corresponds to the commutation angle (the time required to switch from phase-to-phase) which is inherent in the operation of the controlled rectifiers, and should not be confused with artificial commutation where conduction is delayed by a greater time period to achieve excitation control as in the prior art.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 The input and output waveforms for the rotating rectifier assembly 16 is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 of the drawing.
  • the phase-to-phase armature input voltage to the rotating rectifier assembly is shown to be a three phase voltage having a generally symmetrical sinusoidal waveform and having an arbitrary positive and negative amplitude value of the value E R .
  • the forcing excitation conducted by the rotating rectifier assembly 16 is seen to vary over a wide range of positive current output and voltage output of a maximum value K which generally corresponds with the amplitude of the input voltage to the rotating rectifier assembly 16.
  • the range has the same general limits, but with the polarity of the voltage output of the rotating rectifier 16 reversed.
  • a DC saturation curve 70 of the main exciter 14 is illustrated.
  • the operating point A corresponds with rated voltage output and 100% base excitation provided by the pilot exciter 34.
  • the operating point B corresponds to the nominal voltage ceiling which is determined by the maximum voltage characteristics of the components of the rotating rectifier assembly 16.
  • a portion of the curve 70 between the points A and B represents the transient operation of the main exciter 14 during forcing excitation in response to loads which fluctuate above the base excitation level.
  • Firing of the gate control elements 52 of the controlled rectifiers 28 is accomplished by any suitable means such as by means of slip rings or preferably by means of a radio telemetry system which is indicated symbolically by the dash lines 60.
  • Any suitable radio telemetry arrangement which includes means for controlling the gating of the controlled rectifiers 28 may be used.
  • a radio control arrangement such as described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,671,850 may be used to good advantage in carrying out the objectives of the present invention.
  • the controlled rectifiers 28 are operated with a full gate until a signal is received which calls for fast de-excitation of the turbine generator 10. Referring to FIG. 2 of the drawing, this operating arrangement corresponds to operation at point A on the DC saturation curve 70.
  • the AC exciter 14 operates along the portion of the curve between the points A and B in response to forcing excitation provided by the energy stored in the permanent magnet field assembly 36.
  • the gate control unit 55 cooperates with the signal transmitting means 60 to cause the controlled rectifiers 28 to be conductive only during the negative half cycle portions of the armature voltage waveforms shown in FIG. 3 to reverse the polarity of the terminasl 33, 35 of the turbine generator field winding 26. "This is accomplished by firing successive pairs of the controlled rectifiers in the manner shown in FIG. 7. Preferably, firing takes place approximately 20 degrees in advance of the points at which phase-to-phase armature voltages cross on the negative side of the zero axis of the waveforms.
  • the de-excitation time required with this arrangement is not as fast as static de-excitation which may be provided by impressing a reverse polarity voltage across the field winding through slip rings from an external source, as illustrated by the curve 82, but is substantially faster than the fast de-excitation time provided by the conventional means of causing the field winding 16 to be merely shortcircuited without reversing the polarity and without the use of auxiliary power, as represented by the curve 84.
  • the momentary operation of reversing the gating phase of the controlled rectifiers during fast de-excitation has a number of advantages.
  • the controlled rectifiers 28 do not require derating to provide excitation control since the waveform during operation at normal loads is the same as in a conventional diode, and excitation control is provided by the energy stored in the electromagnetic field of the permanent magnet field assembly 36.
  • the momentary gating of the controlled rectifiers for operation during abnormal loading conditions is less severe.
  • the fact that the exciter 14 is not operating continuously at a nominal ceiling voltage makes the exciter losses correspondingly lower.
  • the size of the AC exciter 14 and of the rotating rectifier assembly 12 is also much smaller because it operates at a rated voltage level which is substantially lower than the nominal ceiling voltage which characterizes prior art arrangements.
  • the amount of copper in the exciter windings 25 is correspondingly lower for this reason.
  • the exciter 14 retains its capability for fast response to transient loading conditions. This is provided by the permanent magnet field in the pilot exciter which provides sufficient forcing power to the main exciter field to achieve the required speed of response.
  • the speed of response in such an arrangement is directly proportional to the strength of the magnetic field of the permanent magnet pilot generator, which is in turn directly proportional to the mass of the permanent magnet rotor assembly 36.
  • a permanent magnet pilot generator assembly having sufficient reserve power is provided.
  • base excitation and forcing excitation for the main exciter field winding is provided by the permanent magnet generator with the gate control unit 55 causing the controlled rectifier elements 28 to be fully conductive during the positive half cycle portion of the armature voltage waveforms to provide rated voltage output and to force the output of the main synchronous generator in response to transient load conditions.
  • the pilot exciter operates at nominal power output levels to provide the base excitation for rated voltage output. To comply with forcing excitation requirements, the pilot exciter is rated to provide as much as 2-1/2 times the base level excitation when the main synchronous generator is responding to transient loads.
